Girls Rip: First Love



How's it, girls? I just finished watching First Love, an amazing and inspiring surf documentary that's finally made it to our shores! Following on the footsteps of Jess Laing, Nikki Van Dijk, and India Payne, three girls from Phillip Island, this film takes us through their love of surfing and the ups and downs of training, competition, and injury. The girls are all prepared for their journey to Hawaii, but tragedy strikes and instead of legendary waves and warm sunshine, Jess has to endure surgery and recovery in addition to recently being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. With beautiful footage, and appearances by some of our favorite pros, like Steph Gilmore and Bethany Hamilton, this film brings to us the pure magic and real emotion of surfing.  

Available to rent or download on iTunes now.

Will you watch First Love? Have you already checked it out? What did you think of it?
